Audio stream names is always "Undefined" at playback

Hi Mike,
First, congrats and thanks for this app, ths is THE solution I was looking for to rip my collections and use them afterwards with the great MediaBrowser software.
Now, a small glitch : all the DVDs I rip will produce mkvs with audio streams with "Undefined language. Same goes for subtitles streams.
For example, being French, I always rip movies with audio in original version (let's say English most of the time) and French subs.
I select the streams in MakeMKV interface, generate the MKV fine, all my streams are here, they work fine, but all appear as "Undefined" instead of "English" and "French".
Yesterday I ripped movie "Lilo & Stitch", and wanted to rip english trak as well as French track.
When playing back the final MKV, both tracks are referenced as "Undefined".
So when I play the movie with eitherZoomPlayer of VIsta internal player, if I wan to select the audio stream, I have to try both until I find the good one.
I use the nice plugin called MediaCOntrol, that allows to to switch mkv streams on the fly when playing back in Vista, and it only indicated that stream 1 is Undefined lqnguqge and stream 2 is Undefined language too.
And this is for ALL movies I have ripped so far.
Now if I run Avi-mux gui on MakeMKV resulting files, and change manually audio streams codes to ENG and subs to FRE, and remux all, then it works fine.
So it seems makeMKV does not write correctly the stream names in the mkv headers.
Can you help on this ?
Thanks
